Lo Bueno, Malo y Bomba: ¡Ganó Toronto!

In his weekly column “Lo Bueno, Malo y Bomba”, Juan Mesa points out the good, the bad and the unusual – or “Bomba” – as the season goes on.

Good: Great week for Toronto FC. After winning the Canadian Championship on Wednesday against Vancouver Whitecaps, Aron Winter’s team finally got their first three points of the season with their win against Philadelphia Union on Saturday. Danny Koevermans’ last minute effort sealed an important week for the Canadian team, who are going back yet again to the CONCACAF Champions League.

Bad: FC Dallas’ current form. The Texan club lost their two games this week against Chicago on Wednesday and Real Salt Lake on Saturday. FC Dallas’ last win was on April 14, which marks the worst run for Schellas Hyndman as coach in the club.

LA Galaxy is also struggling. Dead last in the West, LA lost against Houston a couple of hours before Landon Donovan completed a hat trick for the US National Team.

La Bomba: Grazzini’s golazo against Dallas. The Argentine scored a world-class goal to tie the game for Chicago last Wednesday. The Fire went on to win 2-1. Emilio Renteria also scored an incredible long range goal, while Juan Pablo Angel found the back of the net against the Red Bulls with an acrobatic effort.
